Description

David Blevins (Downtown Radio) reports on the first effects of the IRA ceasefire in Northern Ireland. The army in Belfast has already adopted a less visible image on the streets but the move has produced a mixed reaction from the city’s people. Loyalist groups have issued their own demands for peace in the region. Includes vox pop with residents; statements by Belfast Lord Mayor Hugh Smith; Ian Paisley, DUP. Poor quality recording.
